Our Mission to Support Youth and Community-Led Change
Our mission is to advance youth upliftment by supporting community-based programs globally, that provide mentorship, education, and opportunities for young people to grow and thrive.
Standing With Youth, Creating Opportunity
Friends of Project Sunwave exists to support and amplify the work of its partners, like Project Sunwave in South Africa, ensuring that young people in under-resourced coastal communities have access to opportunity, safety, and hope.
Empowering Communities
Our goal is not short-term aid, but long-term, community-led change that empowers youth to shape their own futures and break cycles of inequality.
Compassion In Action
Meaningful change begins with human connection. Showing up, listening, and investing in young people as they build confidence, skills, and a sense of belonging. We do this through education, water safety, ocean sports, and mentorship.
This is the new generation of events
These events not only provide opportunities for fundraising but also serve as platforms to raise awareness about Friends of Project Sunwave's mission.
